Dark Haired Lovely.

Mmmm. I like the sound of that. My plans fell through with my friend to redye my hair over the weekend, though I totally understand the circumstances so it's alright. So I braved myself up last night and did it on my own, and I honestly think it came out ok, though a tad more red/golden than I had wanted. But I got the dye from a limited selection of colors on sale from Target, so what can I do? Plus, it is likely to fade a bit after a few washes. I love the feel of my hair after it has been dyed. :)

I sometimes think that I am a bit strange (ok, well I know that I am strange! ;>), in that I am naturally blonde, but choose to darken my hair. They always say that blondes have more fun, but I never felt that way. Anyhow, I have my reasons, and many people seem to like it darker (like my Glitter Girl), though there is a little bit of red in there for those that miss my old red hair (like my huggy bear). I think that this darker hair color expresses who I am the best...mostly conservative with the light brown color and a little bit of a wild side with the reddish gold tint/highlights. I like it a lot. I feel good about myself too.

Well, I think I am over this vain little hair rant for now. :)

Yeah, my brother suggested I ask my dad to dye it, since he used to dye it for my (step) mom before she lost all her hair. I just thought the idea of my dad dying my hair a shade he wasn't that fond of, when he really wanted me baby blonde, was a little disturbing. Truth be told, his hair is darker than my natural shade (and so is my biological mom's) so I really had no issues going darker since I am a product of their genes. :)
